Practice net. Any horror story?

I actually made my own out of that green netting that you'd see around the scaffolding on some building sites......Short term....Excellent......Long term......Biiiiiiiiiiig mistake....
It was 8 feet across and about 8 feet high with no openings either side.....

I began hitting my usual 7 irons like i always did....But this night in question a few had hit the net and dropped but then after 1 particular swing....Nothing only that sound that you can here when you ball flies through the leaves of trees without hitting timber......And the a pause..........And BANG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Suffice to say it was good while it lasted.....
I dont think that the occupant of the house on the opposite street that was only 60 yards away at best was impressed and really didnt know where or how that ball landed in his yard

Morale of the story: Buy one dont make one....At least if it goes through that you can blame the manufacturers....
